About Our
Rescue
Group:

Thanks for taking a minute to look at our sweet Chihuahua friends. We look forward to assisting you in the adoption process. Chihuahua Rescue Midwest is a non profit organization. We are an all volunteer rescue, transport, foster and adoption organization. We believe that irresponsible breeding of animals (especially for profit - puppy mills) is unethical and inhumane. We hope that pet owners will consider adoption as their first choice for selecting a new pet. We believe every pet deserves a chance to have a loving forever home.

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat
adoption saves lives. Adopt
a dog or adopt a cat and
you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog
or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes.
Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they
think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from
a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage
people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA,
humane society or pet rescue group.
